A quick deal for everyone. I'm not sure how bad or good your bowling is, but mine is rotten. I don't blame the balls, I blame myself for not doing it often enough. Oh, and I'm a Brit. But anyway, this deal is for those of you who don't care about getting a stellar ball but would like a nice beginner's ball all of your own for free.

Bowlersparadise.com is currently giving away FIVE of it's beginner balls completely free. They say they usually cost around $60, like I say I'm no bowler but that sounds about right. All you have to pay is the shipping fee, which is under $20. Considering how heavy these balls are, that seems quite a deal to me. Right now it looks like they have size 15 and 16 in stock, so these are the heavy suckers. They come with a high-gloss polish finish and the following features. Happy bowling.

This is the kind of post that makes me nervous, because even though Wise Bread's deals have saved me good money, my parents would totally go for this if they knew about it - EVEN THOUGH THEY DON'T BOWL. Too many people's IQs lower when they see the word "free."

Don't forget that somehow you have to get holes into the ball so you can actually use it. It doesn't appear that they are included in the price. Which is good, because anyone that has bowled knows that you have to have proper sized holes otherwise you risk dislocating your fingers when they get stuck in the holes and make that POP sound or throwing backwards because your fingers slip out.

I'm a tiny-bit confused by some of the comments here. 3 negative comments on a free bowling ball deal. I'm not entirely sure what I could have done to make this more palatable. I think the basic point is this...if you don't like the deal, you don't have to go for it. I'm sorry if your parents would get anything that's free, but I'm afraid I can't let that factor into my decision to help a lot of other people save some money.

I didn't think my comment was negative. You didn't say anything about holes and I looked into it. Thought I'd pass the info on, that's all -- don't de"spare". No need to go on strike. (sorry those were the best puns I could come up with...)

It looks like they'll drill the finger holes for you: standard is $20 and professional is $40 and up. So, if you like to bowl and wish you could find *your* ball in a rack full of balls that all look alike, here's your chance! I don't bowl that much. I went last week and started thinking I'd like to bowl more. If I could find something a little lighter than 15 pounds, it might be a deal I could take you up on!

is just under $20, as it says in the article. This is a heavy item so that's quite reasonable. And as for all these puns, they're quite good. But if you can work bedposts into the conversation, you'll be king(pin).

they could give you a break on shipping but you'd have to ask. I suspect these things are so heavy, and they're giving them away free, that you won't get much of a deal...if any. Sorry. But it never hurts to ask.
